The Accra Regional Police Command has arrested a suspect in connection with an alleged arson attack at the Grace Town Power Ministry Headquarters, popularly known as Alpha Hour, located within the Mile 7 District under the Tesano Division.
According to the police, the incident occurred on Monday, 9th February 2026, after they received information that a suspect, identified as Kesse Okyerewaa Koranteng, had unlawfully entered the church premises and set parts of the auditorium on fire.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the suspect allegedly entered the church auditorium carrying a liquid substance stored in rubber containers.
The substance was reportedly sprinkled within the auditorium and ignited with matches, resulting in a fire outbreak.
The fire caused extensive damage to property, including air conditioners, chairs, windows, ten (10) offering boxes, ceiling materials, electrical cables, and the lighting system.
Police officers who visited the scene retrieved four rubber containers suspected of having been used in committing the offence.
The suspect has since been cautioned and is currently in police custody, assisting with ongoing investigations.
The Accra Regional Police Command has assured the public of its commitment to ensuring safety and security and has urged members of the public to promptly report any suspicious activities to the police.
This was contained in a statement signed by Ms. Juliana Obeng, Superintendent of Police and Head of Public Affairs, Accra Region.
